    Would Recommend

    Adam came round to help tidy up our garden. He was very pleasant, knowledgeable (knew about different weeds) and got on with the job at hand. He did a great job and even managed to fit in mowing the lawn for us (additional). Thanks Adam and Find a Local Gardener.

    One off garden maintenance

    Posted 4 days ago

    While our regular gardener was on sick leave we needed a one off garden maintenance & Colin arranged for Simon to do this for us. An easy job to organise & a quick booking meant our garden got the attention it needed in the interim. Simon worked hard, was reliable & polite & understanding. All in all a great job completed quick & efficiently. Thank you

Each member of our garden and landscape team has been personally interviewed, background and reference checked, each have provided proof of address, ID, together with proof they are able to work in the UK.


This ensures absolute certainty for our customers who will be working for them. Each major city has a team of at least 4-5 gardeners able to cover their local work. /
